Munk Dialogue with Steven Pinker
Munk Dialogue with Steven Pinker
Steven Pinker joins us for a thought-provoking discussion on how sectarian solidarity and our pursuit of self-interest has led to the demise of objectivity, truth, and collective rationality.
Steven Pinker is one of the world’s most well-known and admired cognitive psychologists. A professor at Harvard, he conducts research on language, cognition, and social relations. Pinker joins host Rudyard Griffiths to discuss the demise of truth and collective rationality.
“The most pervasive and robust cognitive bias is the one in which people steer their reasoning toward a conclusion that is one of the sacred values of their own tribe.”
